The guys led Roary up the narrowing midway toward a rustier, less inviting side of town. The warehouse was in sight, and not what they'd expected. It looked abandoned. If these guys were military, maybe that was how they wanted it.

"Let's not get ourselves shot today, guys. Snipers might be told to shoot anything that moves, if it's fixing to be the way I see it is. Move in slowly, and stay to the walls. Micky, check that door," he quietly commented, nudging him to look inside a jarred doorway to a nearby building. It stunk of death, surely a few corpses were in the area. It made things all the worse.

"How are we planning on showing these guys we're Marines?" Cliff said. "A good squad of snipers will have visual on the entire street. Can we contact 'em in any way?"

Mikael nodded and moved up to the door, the stench of rotting corpses assailed his nostrils, but he managed to keep his stomach under control. He examined the door and soon found a small hole that he peeked in through.
